In order to deepen understanding at home and keep parents abreast of weekly Second Step themes and topics, parents will be notified through our Venado Dispatch of each Homeroom Second Step lesson they should expect their children to receive that week. You may also access additional information on our Student Support website.

7th Grade Advisement Lesson 4: Identifying Roadblocks
In this week’s lesson, your child will identify and distinguish between internal and external obstacles (or “roadblocks”) that can get in their way when working toward goals.
Tell your child about a roadblock you encountered when you were working toward a goal, and if you had control over the roadblock.
8th Grade Advisement Lesson 4: Harnessing My Strengths
In this week’s lesson, your child will choose something they’d like to get better at and think about how they could apply their unique strengths to do that.
Help your child make a list of strengths they have. Ask your child about how they could use these to get better at a new skill.
